A general problem.  Can you use your commercial leverage (i.e. you are
paying for hardware) to get permission to publish relevant docs?

VIA seem to have no problem publishing docs which they know everyone
expects to be out in the open, such as CPU instruction sets and such.
So they are not totally averse to publishing docs when they believe
it's appropriate.
